I have one character who normally flies a valk, who's temporarily flying a drom to do some trading. I have another character flying a tooled-up eagle for when i need some heavy support. I also have an equipment storage character flying a rhino.

I just sold my Sabre for a Dromedary to make big credit. I love the Dromedary. It made me level-up after each cargo run!

What is a "Fire-&-Forget" weapon?

I'm currently playing through the game trying to use only Borderworld ships

Currently i'm up to Dromedary, and about to do the race.

I'm running the game for the second time now trying it with just freighters, so now I have a Rhino.
I also have a Sabre which I load up whenever I get frustrated with running away all the time .

I have the Eagle, i'm trying to become freindly with the Corsairs so i can get the Titan, but i haven't got it yet (i'm starting to think the Eagle is better than the Titan)

I'm not a smuggler, i just sell alien artefacts and cardamine to the poor and needy!

like one of the guys said on page1 Sabre is the best ship out there. more armor then eagle not as slow as titan, has more firepower then any other ship with the 360* fire turret, but is slower then eagle. Sabre is a great ship to defend yourself with. eagle is only good for attacks/hit and run/cargo stealing due to faster turns and swifter movement. to sum everything up, sabre is a big guy with the bigest power punch there is. titan is slow and does less dmg. eagle faster but lacks 360* fire turret and has less armor.

Just bought a Titan so I could mount my Wildfire,Thor Hammer,Gaurdian, and Promethus. It's a beast. It's a little sluggish but it muakes up for tha with armor out the wazoo.

I swear by my Hammerhead. You can't kill me if you can't get me off your six :-)

i use a Titan, still lvl 33ish, found it can take on all comers, specially as I have maximum weapons class allowed on all my hardpoints except turret, but puzzled by its layout turret layout, its meant to be the best designed fighter u can get yet the turret is in such a dumbass place, they could of put it on top so it fires forward as well as back and sides but no they put it in a position that is only usefull if u are in turret mode shooting backwards and sideways!

Post Thu May 15, 2003 1:27 am

that's why it isn't the best; that is also why the eagle is.

As far as ships go, I have favorites in each class:

VHF- Sabre (This ship pulls me through every time)

HF- Barricuda (ugly in my opinion, but a staple fighter in SP)

LF- Banshee (If you're on my bad side and you meet me in a Banshee all alone, you are in trouble [this is not a threat)
